Our Search Engine

For this reason, we have incorporated the power of Google Search technology within our site. Now you can execute a search for a specific term (called a 'keyword phrase') and our site will present a listing of all the pages that match your request. You can give it a try below by searching for the words President or new york or some other term you are interested in.

To access this powerful search at any time, simply use the link which appears in the upper right corner of every page.

If that fails, it then tries to locate pages which contain any words in your search query.

• This search engine is not meant to replace reading the Searching for Our Roots pages. It is a handy tool to search for and find any text within the site quickly, but you wouldn't want to miss all the other good stuff that I have online. Would you?
   
• By popular demand, this site makes minimal use of the special spanish characters such as ¨, ´ or ñ. This will facilitate the search for all researchers.
   
• If you don't find your ancestor's name on the search engine, try a different spelling for the surname. Remember that your ancestor's surnames are some times spelled differently.
   
• You can search on single words, groups of words, phrases, or conditional phrases.
   
• Searches are not case sensitive.  All caps or all lower case or mixed case is OK.
